Title: Reversed Handled ASL
Post by: Powder on March 19, 2024, 08:47:20 AM

My wife's new bow... First try with a reversed handled ASL... It's only like 30lbs... But at 62 NTN I can pull it to my 29 inch full draw... And it likes to really zing her light weight carbon arrows... Because of the weight and design, she can hit full draw, and her anchor point... So she was WAY more accurate. I may have to try this out for myself, but at a grown up poundage...

Forgive my Sanford and Son background. My shop gets wrecked when I am building...

Looks amazing, can we see the bow stringed and drawn? :clapper:
What is the length of the riser, 12 inches?

Greetings, Peter

Thanks!

Riser is 10 inches. I do 12 inches for full size, 28 inch or more draw lengths...

Very nice bow.  I'm not convinced on rev handle ASLs but really need to try one.

You call that Sanford and Son?????

This is Sanford and Son! :biglaugh:

Looks like my shop…. Forever pig piled. :biglaugh:

That bow seems to be coming off the fades pretty hard. Is that a glass backed bow?

No sir. Hickory... super thin, and I se what you mean... But so far it seems to like it. I think the weird profile kind of screws with the eye...

She only pulls 24 inches... So if it does fail... I'll just try again!
